I did a Honeymoon Poll online and if you haven't picked a HM destination yet, here's some options for you. Brides' names are taken out incase they don't want to be published in this post.

Where are you going?
What resort?
Where are you travelling from?
How many days?
How much is your HM costing you?
How did you book it? Travel Agent or Online
Why did you pick this destination?

We are heading up to Halifax for a week to 10 days, we are leaving from Vermont. We dont know what its going to cost yet- we will be hitting bed and breakfasts along the way. We arent making many plans- its the way we travel! Leave it up to kismet or whatever :-) We wanted to go to Ireland or Scotland (He has been, I havent) but we couldnt afford that (and he hates flying!) so we are going to "the Scotland of Canada". Our trip will be in October of '09- peak foliage season AND during some awesome music festivals :-D

We are going to Ireland! We are leaving from Chicago. We are spending 9 nights, so it comes to about 10 days. It is costing about $3500 total. We used an online travel agent. He has been once but I have never had the joy. We are going in June, which is supposed to be one of the best months.

1. Kind of like Amberian said, and this sort of answers 6, but we're going to the France of Canada most likely - Quebec City, and then also the Mount Tremblant area. So we're dividing the 1 1/2 week honeymoon into two parts that way.
2. Part two will be one of the resort lodges or cabins in Mount Tremblant area.
3. Ontario
4. Around 12
5. Haven't yet.
6. Can't really afford Europe at this point, so we'll be doing the next best thing. And we're doing both the city and then the North country things sort of as a 'his and her's' deal, also to have the flavor of an on-the-go touristy honeymoon, and also some cozy, down time :)
